Kaine, Ben Reilly and many others were all clones of Peter Parker created by the Jackal. I'd rather not explain the whole clone saga because it would get complicated, but let's see.... Jackal made clones. For a while, Ben thought he was a clone. Later found out that he wasn't a clone and Peter was the clone. Later, writers changed it again because of pissed off fans that didn't want Peter to be the clone, so once again, Ben was the clone and Peter was the original. For a time, Peter stopped being Spidey and Ben took over for him. Hence the Ben Reilly Spidey costume being different from the regular Spidey costume. Name is from his Uncle Ben. Last name from Aunt May's maiden name... If you need more than that, I highly recommend googling it because there's a ton of back story to it.
Long Story short: Ben Reilly is a clone of Spider-man, uh come to think of it that turned out to be quite a long story in and of itself. either way he was an interesting take on the character during a time when marvel though 'stuff' against the wall to see what stuck and they didn't feel like he did. Plus he had mad cool costumes imho of course

Marvel Universe Ultimate Gift Set 5 pack | eBay
in the USA it was $29.99

Are you wanting that specific cap for anything other than the sheild? Otherwise I have a cap almost identical to that one save he has the ultimate cap's belt PM me if interested

Just think- once I finish my Spirfire custom, I'll just need to make Pete Wisdom to (almost) all of Captain Britian and MI13!
They were a team so cool, with writing so great and charcaters that worked so well together that Marvel of course cancelled it.
Captain Britian, Peter Wisdom, the Black Knight, Spitfire, Blade, Megan and the new weilder of Excalibur- vs Mother-loving DRACULA and thousands of Marvel vampires- the horrible undead kind, not the sparkly sissy kind.
Oh, they kill a bunch of Skrulls too.
One of these things is not like the other and I don't mean in the obvious way. Sounds like a great line up but blade seems odd

1 - Yeah, there's really no way to shorten the Ben Reilly story lol.
2 - Thanks for the 411
3 - Mainly want him for the shield. I think my son would really like it.

Holy shit! My favorite new character and you totally nailed it!
Can I commission you to make me one?!?
That's just awesome!


You should make Leah- Hela's handmaiden and Loki's companion.

Can you give us a parts recipie please?


EDIT: Okay, I see it now- he's a modified and repainted CW Boba Fett- brilliant.

Well, he showed for two reasons later in the series- First was Dracula making a move to invade England and set up a vampire nation and second was Spitfire is a vampire!
After she got her powers, back in WWII from a blood transfusion from the original Human Torch (crazy, I know!), she was bitten by the original Baron Blood (her cousin, and Union Jack's undead nazi brother).
She' been a vampire ever since WWII, explaining why she never aged a day, but her powers and unique body chemistry drove off all the bad effects- she's not undead, has no problem with sunlight or silver or whatever and just gained extra powers ....and a thirst for blood.
In the MU, Dracula can mind-control most any vampire to be loyal to him and while Blade was trying to make certain Spitfire did not become a super powered enemy that no one could handle (i.e. stake her), he fell in love with her (they have a simmular situation).

Somewhere in tthere, they're a showdown between Doctor Doom and Dracula- on the freakin moon.

Joeysmash24 09-08-2012 06:59 AM

There is a third reason Blade was on the team...he was born in London!
Seriously, Captain Britain & MI-13 is such a great book. Great writing from Paul Cornell and terrific art from Leonard Kirk. He did vampires right. Plus, he made both Captain Britain and the Black Knight extra badass.

I really want that classic MU Black Knight to come out, but I'd love to see the Captain Britain & MI-13 version too.
And of course, I'm dying for that Dracula to come out. Classic style.

Most of us do hunt, but we help each other out with our finds or we are simply buying something for ourselves. I think we've discussed scalpers and the various definitions of scalpers enough for now. We should avoid the topic before a mod comes in here and slaps us all around for talking about this stuff. Everyone's opinion is different, and everyone is entitled to their own opinion. From this point forward, general definition of "scalper" will be a$$hole that travels to every store he/she can to buy up all of the valuable uncommon and rare figures with the sole intention of selling them for an insanely inflated price to make a huge amount of profit from some n00b either on eBay or by some other means. Hows that?
Ahh---an intelligent and thoughful person

Well side

I can't remember who said it because I forgot to quote him, but my Reilly Spidey is the one from the ASM line. :]

I just painted the blue, black. Because that's how I remember him. :]

what about using a halo bad guy and a skrull head look how small the head is compared to the body, or maybe using a thanos head.

It's not new, but with all the incredible customs being posted lately, I feel the need to post something... (Shroud, Loki both MUST be in my collection!)
[IMG]http://pic90.picturetrail.com/VOL221.../398914706.jpg[/IMG]
SUFFER BAD MOON!!!- YOU WILL NEVER HAVE THE BLACK KNIGHT!!!

Really, he's super easy if you can score that old SDS head- BK was my first ever custom!
wait till I get his Atomic Steed completed!
Hmmm...you could probably make a nice BL head from the Cap line carded Captain Britian's head- the helmet is already right in the eyes, and the rest is just some sculpting detail work. And sanding. Some cursing.

I was just thinking before posting in that I should take a Wonderman body/arms with Steve Rogers legs and a Renegades Duke head and make a better scaled version of the awesome MI-13 Captain Britian maskless costume. It kills me how they chumped him in Secret Avengers! Just like they did Nova and Moon Knight!
GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The classic Dracula can be sharply made from a suited Destro (or MIB figure) with a (second) Namor head- just add in a short cape like from a Hobgoblin- someone here really made a killer custom that way (it's in that forum).

One of my favorite fights was in a 90's spiderman & X-Men comic, and Wolverine took on Carnage with his bone claws. Carnage just ate them, lol. I love the idea of Wolverine fighting Carnage for some reason. :D

If that GL 3.75" movie Kilowog was bigger it'd be a great place to start for this bad boy.
